Hopefully you like it after all this.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

TT30 Ghost Town Revisited!!!

I also don’t have TTP1 which was a promo EP giveaway so doesn’t really count.

As a completist, I know the kind of rationalising that leads to your second sentence.

Nice I saw those boxes being sold on ebay. Nearly bought a Clash one. So do you all the bands on Two-Tone or just The Specials. Friday Club/Costello etc etc.

Nice ‘shelf portrait’ 101w.... a lot of overlap with my collection too.
But I’m intrigued by the aluminium flight case.
Is it a previously-unheard-of ‘magic suitcase edition’ of Carbon Silicon back catalogue... or (since it’s partially obscured by the Strummer 001 box on top) a guilty pleasure - like a Kiss Kollection?! :mrgreen:

Rubber wear would be my guess. In two tone of course.

I love the shelf, but I am very disappointed that it's not upside down since you are in New Zealand and I was told you were upside down.

That is one really cool shelf.
